I know I know
I know others
are deaf and blind
.
they hear not nor
see anything
I mean to explain
they care not
.
I know you know
you know others
who don’t

Imaginary Staircases
*
it takes care
to inquire of oneself
going down
inside in total silence
one step at
a time on imaginary
staircases

The Foggy Line
*
the foggy line
from insanity and
deep pain how far
can we go on
.
hurting others be
cause we won’t
a-knowledge

A Thrill
*
a thrill among branches
.
unseen the wind
.
moves leaves
and clouds

Early Autumn
*
rustling the rusted
leaves run the ground
the rain of the dead
becomes the soft sound
of the lower wind
rearranging the streets
of an early autumn
.

Solitude
*
solitude lived
in absence
of fear
leads you
to great riches

Estate 2021 Inedita
*
e poi smettono
le cicale
quelle vicine e
sale il verde
ancora più caldo
delle ortiche

Hammock
*
I gently swing
back and forth
I gently move
my body in the
evening air
an hammock
weightless I
wait for my next
migration into
the still night
stretched on
.

Strength
*
standing strong
in my solitude
sweet moments
of deep joy out
of my own well

Prelude
*
I do not ever
want to leave
this silence
.
this peace that
scared me yesterday
prelude of heaven
.

For You
*
your unpronounceable name
backward is wonder
upward is silence
where I abide
to my best
for you

The Revelation Of Presence
*
I quiver as the sun
comes back out
from behind the trees
.
I remember being
fifteen drenched in
too many questions
.
boiling over in the
heat of the sunshine
evaporating upward
.
leaving
.
room for silence
to fill each single
gap each crevice
.

Possibilities
*
tall piles of books
tall piles of paper
tall piles of drawings
tall piles of note taking
tall piles of poems scribbled
a few empty jars cleaned out
I live in my ideal city pushed
back in the corner I sit
each title a windows’
line each space
a possibility
.

Such Silence
*
such lightness
silence lingers
I thrive under
silence falls on us
to help us on
telling what is you
have to be
silent to hear poetry

Asking You
*
don’t many of us
in this life get the chance
to be human
.
even if for a brief
moment of vulnerability
.
tenderness entwined in
with love and forgiveness
embracing mistakes
.
ours or others
understanding
there are no podiums
.
but one race
just one step
following
the other
.
one person
looking after another
keeping our necks oiled
to turn around
any given time
.
.
